A 23-year old man is jailed charged with four counts of aggravated assault. Jose Francisco Rocha
Ortiz is accused of firing several shots into a crowd yesterday morning in a parking lot in the
6000 block of South MLK in Beaumont. Four victims were transported to the hospital for
treatment. Police believe a shooting last night in the 2600 block of Fillmore was in retaliation of
the MLK shooting. A man was shot in the chest. He was listed in stable condition. The suspects
in that shooting fled the scene.
